Costa Rica - New Year's 2009

My girlfriend Rachel and I have developed an annual New Year's ritual. We pick a destination and take ~1 week off from the stressful office environment to relax, fish, and enjoy life. Previous trips include, the Keys, Jamaica and the Bahamas. This year we decided on Costa Rica, and what better place in Costa Rica than the Pacific Coast's world-renowned fishing destination Los Suenos Resort and Marina. Alhtough the rest of Team Googan were not along for the ride, we had one hell of a fishing trip. We departed from the marina on New Year's morning feeling a little uneasy from the night before, but luckily the seas were relatively flat and the bite was on! Ended the day 5 for 6 on Sails and Rachel caught a nice bull dorado. We also raised a 300+lb Blue Marlin but failed to hook up....We are already planning our return to get revenge.
